EertiliEaTs on potntnrs.

An experiment with different ferti.
lizers on potatoes has demonstrated
that stable manure and all niirogenous
fertilizers injure the quality of the po-
tato. The highest quality-that is the
highest percentage of starch-was
found in potatoes raised without fer
tilizers The tendency OF fertilization
seems to be that the yield of potatoes
il much larger. but their quality is
not SO good. The super. phosphate OF
lime ard sulphate CT potash used to-
gether on the potato field produces a
very large yield OF large potatoes.
One experiment produced 2Os bushels
ia an acre of large potatoes.

A Mysusriors Murder.

GREENFIELD, Mass, Nov. 80. David
Randall of Turner'S Eslls, u gardener,
proprietor OF fruit farm, Was shot and
killed last night, while sitting by .
window in hts house, by some one IN.
known. The charge was from . shot
gun fred outside the house.
The entire !acE Of any known motive
forms subject OF the deepest perplex-
ity. There seems to be no doubt that
the gun from which the shot was fired
wac an old smooth. bore Springfield rifle
which . yonng son OF Randall had
loaded heavily with B. B. shot on
Thanksgiving morning, the rife after
ward beirg placed in ths woodshed,
where 1t was stolen the next day. The
victim was showing the occupants OF
the room q lot OF eggo he had bought,
when suddenly stunning explosion
occurred, and . section OF the lamp
shade fell. The family thought 1t frat
that the lamp had exploded.
The victim after the explosion still
sat IN his chair. his cane ciasped In bis
hands, resting between his knees, but
his head Was bent forward on his
breast, and when they reached his side
he WAS dead. The scene OF the TRACED y
today is being visited by crowds OF
people from the surrounding country
and large delegations OF newspaper
men. The general belief now prevails
that Randall was assass!nsted with g
shot gun that whoever fred the shot
came there about g. go, rested the gun
on.a small bird cage on the outer steps,
sighted at tho old man through the
window and afterwards fed with the
gun, which it Is believed ia secrsted
somewhere about the premises.
The family copslsta OF vile, young
daughter and SOD. II years old. The
officers are not satisfied with the boy q
story about the gun. He has the repu
tation Of being rather tough, and off
csrs say they have been told he has on
several occasions Threatened his father
with bodily harm. Other neighbors
lsay, however, the son and father ap
parently thought the world Of one
an other, and scout the theory that the
son did the deed. The boy says that he
left the house fifteen minutes before the
murder. ostensibly to 60 to Mon sgue
City TO visit come Of the boys.
He states with precision the very
second he reached there and the hour
he left, most too exacs for belief, and
this suspicion is shared by the State
detectiveS. who have the case in hand
The most likely theory is that the SOL
killed his father The gun was found
at noon By the side Of the road, 10(
yards from the hoIse. About O'CLOCK
4 Lincoln Randall, the BOD, was arrested
on warrant for murder issued against
hin. He takes HE arrest coolly. There
were $4,000 insurance on RandAll'l
life, and there are whispers that prob
liability of willing this TO his sister may
have prompted the SOD to commit the
deec.

frequently met with applause, and,
while the circus may not be as com
plete as the high priced ones, the fun
is the same. Zmora and Mrs Zemora

Shields did some fine walking and act

Brothers were the clowns, and bad
some really fresh jokes and new tricks.
Frederick Barclay, in his wild Indian
ride, "The Oomanche on Horse back, !"
was dressed in full and correct Indian
costume, and is a marvellous bareback
rider. Harry Brandon, as a contor-

been seldom surpassed here in that

the dog riders were all in trim and
neat.
